5x expanded by Epicgenius (talk). Self-nominated at 16:57, 9 January 2023 (UTC).[reply]

The article is expanded fivefolds, long enough, referenced, neutral and no copyvio obvious. The hooks are sourced and interesting. AGF several offline sources in the article. The image here is free and clear, while other images in the article are also free. Just waiting for QPQ and other possible hooks. Corachow (talk) 19:45, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging Epicgenius. Sorry, should've done it in the review. Corachow (talk) 13:28, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Corachow: Thanks for the review, and it's my fault that I didn't see this earlier. I'll do a QPQ soon and, if I have time, propose additional hooks. Epicgenius (talk) 16:08, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Corachow: I have now done a QPQ. Sadly, I can't think of any other interesting hooks (I thought I could think of a hook related to the bird cage, but it seems not). Thank you again for the review. Epicgenius (talk) 15:11, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, approving now. Corachow (talk) 15:25, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Rate	Attribute	Review Comment
1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	There were a couple minor issues but I took care of them
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
	2c. it contains no original research.
	2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
	7. Overall assessment.	Congrats!

Notes for if you want to improve it further:

If you want to make the separation between the maps clearer, include this in the image code: | image_style = border-color: gray;
Images of the interior might be a nice touch
Facade should probably be façade, per Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Foreign_terms
